Can I respectfully suggest that if you want to discuss American Politics then you should go elsewhere and not fill up mailboxes throughout the civilised world with your opinions. Malcolm

Excellent suggestion coming from the preeminent, cranky, angry schoolmaster, _the_ most politically charged and indignant member of the goddam iiug. Of course I find it quite puzzling in light of this being 2008, that anyone would need to read emails from comp.databases.informix when you can use Thunderbird or other news reader and simply ignore messages you don't want to read. Email? geez, that's old school! malcolm.iiug wrote: > Can I respectfully suggest that if you want to discuss American Politics > then you should go elsewhere and not fill up mailboxes throughout the > civilised world with your opinions. > > > > Malcolm >

That's probably why we have concepts like "off-topic" and "netiquette". It was a simple and fair request...
